Friendship

It was a nice sunny day, but when Nicole got off the bus, she was sad and mad because her best friend had moved away to Florida! When she opened the door, she tossed her backpack on the ground. Her mom asked, “how was school, hon?” Nicole said, “It was fine.” Then her mom asked, “are you okay?” Nicole yelled, “I’M FINE!” She stormed up the stairs into her room and screamed into her pillow.

Then the next day, she walked to her classroom and the teacher said, “there is a new student joining us today, her name is Abby.” Abby said, “hi, my name is Abby.” The teacher asked her to sit next to Nicole. Nicole was as quiet as a mouse.

One month later, another new student joined the class. The door creaked, CREAAAAK it was Emily! Nicole’s best friend! But Nicole was quiet because Abby, the new student from before, is now her new best friend! At recess, Emily walked up to Nicole and Abby, Emily was as mad as an angry cat. She said,

“ who’s this?” very angrily. Then Nicole said calmly, “this is Abby my best friend.” Then Abby said, “hi!” very happily. Then Emily said disgustedly, “hi?” Nicole said, “ why did you say hi like that?” Emily shouted, “I THOUGHT I WAS YOUR ONLY BEST FRIEND!” Nicole remained quiet.

Emily said, “I thought I was your best friend.” Nicole said, “You left, and Abby saw me looking sad and she wanted to be friends.” Emily said, “because I left you had to replace me?!” Then Nicole and Emily started to argue, it was as loud as thunder.

Abby thought what can make them stop arguing Abby saw a tree and climbed the tree. Abby looked down at the girls

arguing. Abby thought to herself, maybe if I scare them they will quit arguing. So, Abby snuck out on the tree limb right above the girls. She flipped upside down, and yelled “BOO!” and made the silliest face. The girls laughed and laughed.

Abby climbed down and asked, “ why can’t we all be friends?” Nicole and Emily said together, “I’m sorry.” Then hugged each other. Abby, Nicole, and Emily all became friends. From that point on the girls were inseparable.
